Not sure what it is about Segways, but when i see them i think Spoiled jerk " too good to walk huh?" of course i would love to try it my self... so must be Jealously LOL

Anyway here is quick sketch of Dolphin ( with hair) coming to work at Gee Whizzy World with Hangover No doubt

Dolphin sketches

Some rough quick sketches on the Dolphin character.
So what ya think of the name Skipper for the Dolphin..? its a play on Flipper & has that snobby country club name that one might associate with 1980's teen movie. Skipper would be his stage name & Skip his behind the scene name.

Gee Whizzy World- Mascot "The Dolphin"

Our rival theme park mascot & main villain of the show. The "Douche bag Dolphin" I imagine him as a villain from the 1980's John Hughes movies or the bad blonde kid from Karate Kid. The Rich spoiled Preppy frat boy type .. Collar popped with shades on.. Classic 80's teen movie bad guy ..crossed with Darla Dimples from Cat's Dont Dance. I total fake in front of public but a terror behind the scenes. He especially hates our trio.. with Bumby annoying him the most. I think he be a great villain for our show.. What do you think? Name suggestions?

Anyway here is my rough concept drawing of him...IM no character designer .. so any other takes on him be great to see!

This is a thumbnail of Old fashion postcard ...Greeting from Florida with Bumby lounging on an Orange with See Crackerland printed on Orange ( this parody of See Rock City) ...at bottom of postcard is the typical directions... Off Route 71 ( 71 reference to year Disney World opened) near Okey Dokee, Florida ( this parody of Florida indian town names.. very much like Okeechobee) plus it sounded silly enough, any thoughts? the dumber the better!
